Step right up to the acro-batiest show on earth!

The madman industrialist Edgar Ektor has siezed control of the World of Amusement. He and a deranged cast of fairground freaks threaten the circus. The only hope for survival is the high-flying, death-defying Aero the Acro-Bat!

Spine-tingling terror unfolds as Aero tackles Ektor's wicked henchmen. Bungee jump into a battle with evil! Skydive in mode 7 toward the danger below. Hang on for the ride of your life as you rise and plunge on a roaring roller coaster! Tiptoe across a terrifying tightrope! Then power drill and twist Aero right through every sinister circus enemy imaginable. And all the while, the show must go on!

TRIVIA

Released in October 1993 in USA. Two months after the Genesis version; Aero the "Acro-Bat [Model T-15056]"

The SNES version used the Aero title song as level 1-1, but the Genesis version used the Saber Dance song as level 1-1 instead (which it shares with level 2-2). The SNES version also featured a level intro song which the Genesis version lacks entirely. However, the Genesis version features some music that the SNES version lacks, such as the level 4-3 theme.

The Super Famicom version was presented at the Famicom Spaceworld' 93 in August 1993 in Japan but was never released in Japan.
